About Us

At Cooktiva, we believe that every meal is an opportunity to connect, create, and celebrate. Whether you’re a curious beginner or an experienced home chef, our goal is to make cooking accessible, inspiring, and fun.

Our Roots

Founded in 2023 by food enthusiast and writer Rahat, Cooktiva began as a small collection of family recipes passed down through generations. With a background in food journalism and a passion for global cuisines, Rahat wanted a modern space where flavors from every corner of the world could come alive in your kitchen.
